Full swing is everything but about 10 shots in my case. It seems that no matter how well, or poorly I strike the ball, it is the short game that accounts for a good vs average vs poor score that day.

My scores tend to average a certain 'baseline' and a good day is about five shots better, a bad day five shots worse, than that average.

I can have a great ball striking day, and shoot my average with less than great putting, or a poor ball striking day and shoot a good score with a hot putter and good chipping. Almost always in that 10 shot window.

Of course if I play often, that average baseline goes down and the variation gets much smaller than 10 shots, but with very little play in the past year (maybe 10 rounds total), the 10 shot window is about right.
